Can't tell if this for new grads or not...qualified?

Is this for someone who already has been working? The 1-3 of experience is what worries me. Can't blow my reference here with the firm that has this posting, and not have it be a position suitable for me.

I am currently doing my MSF and have had several internships, do you guys think I have candidacy?

Maybe if you had 1+ years of internships at VERY prestigious firms you would be considered. However, they usually mean FT experience if not stated, and Guggenheim Investments does not seem to be as lenient as most firms. That being said, I have had interviews with firms that required 1 year more experience than I had.
